The Kaya Lahakani Project

Overview

The Kaya Lahakani Project, established by THE TUNG TEIYA DAHAMANI FOUNDATION, stands as a beacon of empowerment within underprivileged communities, particularly in the Northern sector of Ghana. Launched on March 11, 2023, this flagship initiative is meticulously designed to address the unique needs of young girls, offering them a transformative pathway out of poverty and towards sustainable livelihoods.

Objective

At its core, the Kaya Lahakani Project aims to provide young girls with invaluable vocational skills, breaking the chains of poverty and offering a gateway to economic self-sufficiency. By focusing on skill development, the project seeks to empower these girls with the tools they need to carve out brighter futures for themselves and their communities.

Key Achievements

The project has achieved significant milestones since its inception:

Empowering Young Girls:

To date, the project has provided 25 sewing machines, 5 hairdressing machines, and 5 smock weaving machines. These tools serve as instruments of empowerment, equipping young girls with practical skills that open doors to economic independence.

Entrepreneurship Training:

In November 2022, the project conducted entrepreneurship training, with a focus on pastry making. Ten women underwent this training, receiving not only knowledge but also raw materials to kickstart their enterprises, promoting economic self-sufficiency within the community.
